Sherry, what a sweet little chubby cherub she is.

6 granddaughters? No grandsons at all?

Ednam, if you mean the insides are firm and ALL of the outside 'skin' is mushy they are as good as dead. Mind you I never did save the one that got the same thing so anybody who has had success with this is better to be heard. Mine usually dry up a bit at the tip during the process of rooting. In the meantime, there's always a chance to try some things I did do if you have firm skin left somewhere on the lower part. A few tips that might help but won't hurt. You can put them back in a cup of water having cut off the mushy part as Mike advised. If there wasn't any good sized nubbies before you put them in soil it's ok to take them out of the dirt and grow some more roots. Although I doubt it's for lack of water as they'd dry up. Keep the water around 70F, which means away from drafty windows to. Make sure the chlorine is out of any water used. Shake a container of water and blow over the water, keep a little distance and smell the water. Keep shaking until you don't smell the chlorine. You can leave water out to open air for 24 hours and the chlorine will leave it. To speed things up on a larger amount of water, bucket or aquarium etc, use a blender. Make sure no electrical parts can get submerged...better you just hold on to it and whip the water around, taking a break whenever necessary. If you're going to put them in water, place about 1/2 in water, (don't know what size you have or how many nubbies are on the lower portion but it'll matter as far as how much water the plant will be able to absorb, therefore if there's a lot of nubbies you won't need so much in the water no less than 1/4). Try to keep at least 1 branch eye up out of the water, it's easier for the new branch(es) to grow out of these but not necessary. Place a sandwich bag (drape saran wrap) over it loosely. If you seal it you will get all of those white nubbies all up the stem growing roots. My experience with sealing them: mine looked like they had chicken pocks...real bad. Then it shriveled quite a bit when re-exposed to air, and hardened the branch, still don't know if anything is going to come of this branch. Make sure they are right side up. The angle left where the branch used to be also shows which way the branches were growing. Or viewable as a thinning branch. Hope all will be well...Anybody else? -Sandy

Beer traps with one in close proximity to every seedling. The bait works but involves chemicals and a bit more expensive. Plus you get to drink the rest of the beer! I give my slugs a nice triple IPA every spring.

Something tells me she gets lots of kisses. She is so cute and all those little fat rolls are perfect. Just the way little ones should be.

Give her a big kiss right in her neck for me.

She'd look good being passed around arm to arm at Canning Camp. I took a picture of my kid in a tamale pot when he was two months old....

A friend of mine just had her third child - all three girls and she comes from a family of all girls.

Doris,
I am one of two girls and there were five boys in my family. My husband is the only boy with 5 sisters. So, I had 5 brothers, he had 5 sisters. And my kids can only have girls for some reason. (I don't care, I love little girls)

I have 6 grandsons.....and one grand daughter.
My father was one of 4 boys, my mother from 2 males and 2 females....but her father was one of 8 boys and there was only one boy in the and her mother had a sister and a brother.
I have a brother and DH had a sister....but his father was from 6 boy family.....and of those 6 boys there were only 3 boy kids and 10 girls
Not sure what all that proves....but it's interesting! LOL!
